England return to Wembley for the first time since Euro 2012 when they tackle Ukraine in the World Cup group H qualifier.

Fifteen British medallists from this summer’s Games will be presented to the crowd at half-time.

‘They have been such a success. It is terrific they can be paraded at the game tomorrow,’ said Hodgson.

‘We have profited enormously from the Olympic Games. It is important that we try to keep some of that spirit going and try to tap in to what is a great interest from the English public in top-level sport.’

The 65-year-old will make only one enforced change from the side which overcame Moldova 5-0 on Friday, with Gary Cahill or Phil Jagielka replacing the injured John Terry.

‘I see no reason for making any particular changes, other than the one forced on us,’ added Hodgson.

‘Cahill and Jagielka are both good players, so it is a tight decision. I trust them both.’
